The weapon was mounted on a barrel which fired green bursts of energy at a rapid rate, which allowed the user to 'pepper' their enemies with either single bolts or a stream of smaller bolts which had a reduced range capability. The weapon made use of loaded ammunition and did not possess a recharge cycle. An alternate firing mode on the weapon allowed for the magnetic constraint of the discharged energy pulses, resulting in a round of the weapon having the ability to "bounce" off a wall and proceed in the corresponding direction.
